Method

Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare the Mixture

In a large bowl, combine the ground lamb, ground beef, finely chopped onion, minced garlic, chopped parsley, cumin powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.

2

Shape into Skewers

Divide the meat mixture into equal portions and mold each portion around a skewer, shaping them into elongated kofka forms. Ensure they are tightly packed to prevent them from falling apart during grilling.

3

Chill the Skewers

Place the kofka skewers on a plate and drizzle with olive oil. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the mixture to firm up.

4

Preheat the Grill

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

5

Grill the Skewers

Once the grill is hot, place the kofka skewers on the grill. Cook for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the kofka are well browned and cooked through.

6

Serve

Remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes. Serve hot with your choice of dipping sauce or alongside grilled vegetables.
